International global networking has never been as possible or as practical as it is today, finally individuals and groups can cause significant social change and benefit for humanity in other parts of the world. At the same time they can create mutual benefit for themselves and even turn a profit.
If you think it is not important to help others with their businesses in other parts of the world, think again when you drink a cup of coffee or tea, eat a piece of chocolate, or put air in the tires of your auto or bicycle.
Yes, times are changing, the people who grow the coffee, rubber, tropical fruit, spices, and work in factories five thousand miles away are better educated and quickly becoming less vulnerable to exploitation. Mega corporations and middlemen beware as new laws have been passed by the UN that void exploitative agreements with producers, once the producer learns of the policies and find new markets to more directly outlet their goods.
The implications of not supporting fair trade and social enterprise efforts will soon result in the producers in these underdeveloped areas converting coffee plantations into coca plantations so the rural residents can generate more income. Our solutions for these people are similar, we encourage the introduction of underutilized crops.
Our organization and others have been established to serve as revolutionary intermediaries between these honorable people who have been abused enough by modern mega corporations using underhanded practices.
We perform many functions for these exploited communities and work directly with local and national governments in these regions to serve as representatives to get essential equiment and goods to these people and improve their microeconomic situations. In some cases taxes are waived and subsidies are created through this government cooperation.
If you as an individual want to continue to benefit from the hard work of these people we ask that you help by investing in their businesses or contributing to these emerging new social enterprises in one of many ways.
Supporting a social cause can be as easy as buying a cup of coffee made with coffee beans grown by a fair-trade producer cooperative or eating newly reintroduced crops that were forgotten about until recently.
Why is it so economic to create such great opportunity? It all has to do with
how we operate the foundation, 90% of all contributions go directly into projects.
We also use students and people genuinely interested in making a difference and
volunteers who have no need to financially gain from the lives of others. Most of
our clients and our development staff are dedicated and satisfied leading a simple
life free of the societal pleasures commonly found in cities and our sponsors are
appreciative of the ability to perform noble tasks that give back to mankind
in general, thus helping people stay in rural communities creating a more natural
global population balance.
